SECAUCUS AND BEYOND – Mill Creek Marsh in Secaucus has been closed for safety reasons and will remain closed until the Secaucus park ranger finds conditions are safe enough for it to reopen, according to a New Jersey Meadowlands Commission spokesman.

“We know that so many people love Mill Creek Marsh, and we can’t wait for it to reopen either,” said Brian Aberback, NJMC spokesman. “As soon as the marsh is reopened, we will post that notice. In the meantime, please stay off the site. Shoveling the trail will not hasten the park’s reopening, and trespassing is forbidden.”

A Valentine’s Day walk at the marsh has been cancelled because of the prohibition. –Joseph Passantino
